Notes

Her name is sometimes recorded as 'Adaline'

Her headstone hasn't been located (due to deterioration or vandalism, or there may never have been one), but records from the Land and Records office in Nauvoo show that Adeline is indeed buried in this cemetery.

Baby George only lived to be two and a half months old; his mother died a week after his birth. His grandmother, Betsey Roundy, took care of George until he died, and continued caring for his older brother Myron Shadrack Roundy, until their father married Susannah Wallace.
